Life. Death. Eternity.

Then hope. Peace. No more suffering. All it’s all we’ll ever know
Am Fmaj7
But when you loose your own. The notes all sound the same.
C Em Dm
The strings all play same. Still my heart remains in pain
Chorus:
C Em F G Am C
So I’m living for the day, when my eyes be fixed upon sweet Zion
Am Em F
Then my strength shall remain in God alone,
G Am G F
All I’ve been living for, I’ll hold.
C G/B Am G Am - Em – Fmaj7
I’ll hold you and I’ll never go away,

I’ll never go away

Am Fmaj7
They took your pictures, we hung dem pictures

And your big sista, waiting for her brothas, Zion and Hezekiah

How could our babies go away
